NEW PlayStation PULSE Explore - Dope or Nope? 

Not hearing the chip was crazy. Hopefully more people get these buds. Hate the crunching and sucking down soda noises.

Bruh the chip test was the best way to sell these buds. Thats so important for gamers.

Excellent honest , straight forward review.. got the portal so to me it's a no brainer to purchase some ! . Thanks dude 😎

I've been doing this on my Inzone H7. I plugged the dongle to PS5. So I was listening to game sound and YT podcast on my phone at the same time. And before that PS5 Discord integration, I was able to listen to the game sound from PS5 while talking to my friend on DC from my phone. This dual Bluetooth setup is amazing.

Thank u vary much for the video i had these for a few days and couldn't find a video on how to connect to my cellphone and i watched yours and now im listening to music and gaming thanks again sir and God bless u

I wouldn't mind seeing a comparison video myself. I didn't even know the INZONE buds were a thing until now. Thanks for the review!

Can't wait to get my hands on these earbuds! Got another week to go before delivery.

Good call on trying the different tips. I’m also feeling like a size larger than normal fits best.

Have a pre-order in! Thanks for the video!

Thank you for mentioning that in the mic test because it’s true the audio always sounds much worse in a RU-vid video vs using it in person on the console. The ps5 has some sort of super audio upscaling cause it sounds so much better when I use party chat vs talking on discord

I would love to see a comparison of the two! I just bought the inzones want to know if I picked the right one 👀

Yes! Looking forward to Comparison with inzone earbuds and pulse explore buds. Especially on Comfort Level of Long hours of gameplay min 3 hrs plus of wearing. Thank You 👍

great review i actually bought these at launch and only after seeing your review have i relisted ive been wearing them upside down lol

Ty for review. I would appreciate a comparison video between inzone earbuds. It all seems that inzone earbuds gives more value and comfort for same price. Planar or more comfort, ANC, and 12 hour battery. I wish the departments worked together and made the pulse explore more expensive, but gave all the features the inzone gives. Any thoughts ?

The vr mic is crazy good so I assumed it was going to be pretty solid

Great review, can't wait to get a pair

Glad I preordered mine! Now I wait for them to arrive…. Thanks for the review!

Glad I preorder mines. The way you switch or listen or talk on your phone at the same you playing on the PS5

I saw the PC Mag review today and they mentioned the 3D audio was poor and so was the bass but I’m thinking that might be due to the issue with different ear top sizes like you mentioned. Did you feel the 3D audio was poor compared to the Pulse 3D headset or the same?

Agree would love to hear the comparison before i pull the trigger on either buds

Yes. Need a comparison between the two buds would be great

Thank you for giving a Very good review

Being planar drivers is why the battery is only 5 hours ei: they are normally hard to drive so more power to get them to sound they way they do. Great review man looking forward to mine coming in. And when you say tweaking these is probably more like better EQ’ing to your taste, which will probably come in a later update much like the OG elites

I bought these and am excited when my portal arrives too. I was already looking to replace my 3 year old galaxy buds so perfect timing for me. I’m also not an audiophile so not being able to tweak settings is ok with ke

Solid. You should do a video comparing the Inzone buds vs the Pulse buds. Nobody has a made that video yet.

Mainly interested in this for my PSVR2, using the Pulse 3D on top of my VR gives me headaches, just sits too tight for me.

Please do a comparison video with the Sony in zone earbuds and the PS5 earbuds I think that would be a dope video seeing that type of comparison

I pre order these I'm really excited for them

Yes please. Comparison between these and the Inzone Earbuds would be super helpful! 😎🤙

The review I’ve been waiting for 👍🏼

Definitely need to see that comparison.

Please do a comparison with the inzone earbuds, I already have them and have pre ordered the PS5 earbuds, so I would love to see them head to head. Thank you again for the great content!

Pulse explore and Sony INZONE buds comparison would be awesome. Thanks for this review!!

Not having a mute button is kinda a hit for me wanting to buy it(I want it for my PC). I don't like to use push to talk, so I always have it on. So I always mute from the mic. I might still buy it for the PS5.

I should have hit Subscribe on your Portal video. That error has been resolved.

Awesome review. Not hearing someone eating will make me buy these alone.

Thanks guys. Looking 👀 forward to the pulse elites video.

Definitely want to see a comparison between the inzone and this

Yeah! Do the comparison video!

good video. I would be interested to know if there are also equalizer settings on the PS5 in combination with explore.

yes please compare with inzone buds , awesome video review :)

Question, pro contoler FN button volume up down and game chat mix left right does that work? Or do we have EQ settings in the ps5 menu same as with the pulse 3d?

We need that comparison plz! Both are sitting in my cart 😭

How long does it take to charge back to 1 hour or full 5 hour? Good informative review. Thanks. 🙏🏼

I would love to see a video vs. the Sony inzone buds. I’m having a difficulty deciding if I should buy the Sony explore pulse over retail price or if should buy the inzone which is still selling for $200 . I don’t mind buying the explore pulse over retail but is it worth it .

Are there any visual cues as too how much battery is remaining on the buds while in use on the ps5 also is there any way to tell when the case is fully charged when that is being charged?

Would really appreciate that comparison between the Pulse explore and the inzone buds

yes please do a comparison between the pulse & inzone, i held off the inzone just to wait for this to make my final decision

Yes!! Plz do a comparison

I would love this for my ps5. I worked from home and have a headset on all day. I stream to my PC just so I can use my wireless buds already. Would love to be able to pair something this size to my ps5

Love to see the comparison with Inzone earbuds

Would love to see the comparison with the InZone buds. I think those are a better value overall

Came to RU-vid literally looking for a comparison video between Pulse Explore and Inzone earbuds and I haven't found one yet, so a big yes from me, if you're on the fence about making that.

I would love a comparison video between the Sony buds for PlayStation, please.

very cool! I just wish they were more affordable lol I will wait for a sale

Cant wait to get them

Yeah man let’s get a comparison between these and the in zone

Is there any type of Sidetone feature that lets you hear your own voice? I hate the plugged ear feeling when trying to talk

I'd love to see a comparison to the Inzone Buds. But I think my mind is made up already, the Inzone Buds are the ones for me. It's only missing the simultaneous bt+PS5 audio as far as I'm concerned, maybe I'll finally get that in my next headset purchase, but if these are my choices for earbuds right now the inzone is just more fully featured.

it's crazy the new planar full size headphones coming in Feb with the charging stand are 149😂 I think somebody swapped the prices by accident and they kept it like that lol

One of my buddy loves to chew ice in the mic and it irritates my soul to the core, will recommend these

no review for usage on music or everyday usage? i want to hear your thoughts about this vs WF-1000XM5. Different market TWS i know, just want a comparison since i'm contemplating which worthier to buy.

Interesting use case/question for you: My wife and I game in the same room (back-to-back). We're both interested in switching from over the ear headsets to in headphones. My concern here is the chat mic for these. Do you have any insight on this? We game together with my brother-in-law and his wife frequently. Because we're in the same room, sometimes it'll echo from each other's mic. Do you think we'd have that same issue with these? Thanks!

$200 portal accessory $200 earbuds $200 pro controller … Sony needs to chill the heck out! I hate that if you wanna use earbuds with the PlayStation or portal, it has to be these. People will probably enjoy using their AirPods or Bose etc a lot more

please do a comparison video would love to see it with the other sony earbuds

Love the way you use eating crisps for a scientific mic test :0)

I would love to see the comparison between the Explore and Inzone.

I'm gonna get these for sure, they'll compliment the PSVR2 quite well, can they be used with the Quest3?

Do these have the ability to use only one at a time? Or do I *have* to use both? Typically when at work, I throw a single earbud in so I can still hear. I know lots of people will say audio pass-through, but... eh, I still prefer it.

Since Sony sent an update that you can adjust the tuning do you think we could get maybe an updated review?

Bro, can you tell me when the second batch of ps portal is coming?

That chip test was defining for me 😂. I do wsnt a comparison to that and inzone and maybe Samsung Earbuds and even Razer Hammerhead because I'm an advocate of earbuds because of its simplicity and convenience. How is the bass??? That's one importsnt question too. Also I would like to know if it somehow works on Switch and Xbox. I know my gold ps headset works on my switch

Just got mines , there okay not the best not to loud as they should be and bass etc, my recommendation is get a 3.5 transmitter with aptx codec earbuds and you will be fine , get the boss comfort 2 model and you'll have the best money can buy

Can you do a inzone buds vs pulse buds . Because I’m not sure which one to go for … thanks 😊

Can both these and the Pulse 3Ds be connected to the PS5 at the same time and be used at the same time, whether for 2 player or to consume media?

Audeze the audiophile company that sony acquired has put planar magnetic drivers in there wired iems and now sony has them in the wireless earbuds in this video. I have the hifi man he4xx over the ear wired headphones and they use planar magnetic drivers. Planar magnetic drivers were designed to have bass that is tight and precise and to minimize and have less distortion than there dynamic drivers counterpart since most headphones and speakers use dynamic drivers.

Does it work with the Sony headphones app on mobile? Is it better sounding than the most recent Sony link buds??

6:15 For someone which is DISGUSTED from chewing sounds, that is a game changer 🥺❤

when using on ps5, does it connect on the go or would it still need the dongle? planning on using these for psvr2. that said, is the sound quality noticeably better that the one psvr2 headset came with?

the chip test sold me

I got to get this for my cousin who is always eating while we are playing 😂😂

Let’s get a comparison video please

Imma need a comparison

Where did you get that portal stand with the PlayStation logo?

Definitely compare them … I have the inzone buds .. I wanna know if they are better than the pulse explorer buds

I'd say Dope. I like the idea of these. Especially as a twitch streamer myself. Its one less wire while gaming. You know what would be cool though? Is if you can actually dual pair with your daily driver phone. Just one pair of Bluetooth earbuds for everything.

Sony needs to let off brand ear buds connect to the ps5! Would love to use my bose.

Please make a comparison, I’m debating on which earbud to get

Do they work when in a different room to PS5 with your portal? Shame this wasn’t mentioned as I’m sure the dongle using Lossless Audio has its limits

that grey edge controller is crazy where did you get it @ ?

Do reviews for the Sony Inzone Headsets H3, H5, H7 and H9...Also the Inzone Earbuds that have a 12hr battery life vs the 5hr on the Pulse Earbuds

Yes please!! Compare it to the inzone earbuds

How is the latency on these when connected to something like the Nintendo Switch via Bluetooth?

No mute on the buds is crazy

If you have both the pulse elite and the pulse explorer can you use just one dongle with the PS5 ?

Hi! If i charge the earbuds, how many hours needs it to charge? Thanks for youre answer!

Keep saying it, but really looking forward to elite/h9 comparison.

Yes a comparison please

What about if u have a sound system and wanna hear the bass and just the audio while wearing them.. I like to have my sound system on vs on the headset will it do a noise canceling

As a dad I usually have one ear cup off so I can also hear the kids. Could I use only one ear bud?
